[gentoo-user] Paper: Normalized source code repositories
Hi folks, some while ago I've already talked a bit about the OSS-QM project and it's source code repositories, which include upstreams together with downstream's (distros, etc) changes. Here's a paper describing it more in datail, from automated upstream imports down to also importing downstream/distro changes automatically. The latter works quite well for recent Debian packages (at least when following their own policies ;-o), as they tell quite exactly which patches have to be applied (and their order). For Gentoo it's more complicated, as I dont know a way to exact that information yet. http://www.metux.de/download/oss-qm/normalized_repository.pdf cu -- -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 -- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme --

Re: [gentoo-user] Booting Gentoo from USB stick
Ah, I see. For this test, I have a second PC that I've unplugged the hard drive from. And it's hard drive currently has a work Windows image on it, anyway, so it's definitely not booting from that. :-) I assume you have already tested it with a different USB stick and on the other machine, so that you can exclude hardware issues?

Jake Moe Ok, what I mean is that I think the following might happen: 1) root-dir from ramdisk is mounted under / 2) dev-tree is mounted under /dev 3) /dev/sda1 is mounted under / 4) at this point, /dev might no longer be accessible. Now, if you make sure that on the USB-root (/dev/sda1) the folder /dev is actually populated, then it might continue through the boot-process. Or, as you mentioned, issue mknod ... commands while in that maintenance console, then it might be able to find the /dev/sda, /dev/sda1,... devices and continue. Please bear in mind, I have not actually used nor needed a ramdisk to boot from ever since I started using Gentoo. Not even when I played with booting from USB-sticks myself. I simply build the kernel with all the necessary drivers compiled-in and used that to boot from. This might also be an idea for you? -- Joost Eg. if you do the mknod-commands to build the /dev/sda, /dev/sda1, device nodes, then it should be able to continue.

Re: [gentoo-user] no keyboard
I've run into a similar situation in with my installs. The problem comes from the fact that in the kernel configuration, HID support options come *before* USB support options. If USB is originally off, then when you first go through the HID options, the USB Keyboard option isn't there. So you need: CONFIG_USB one or more of the following (as appropriate for your system) CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD CONFIG_HID_USB to make your USB keyboard work.

[gentoo-user] autounmask not doing to well
Hi folks, The latest KDE 4.5.1 has hit the tree. It made it there a few days ago. Yeppie!! It is masked but I wanted to try to install it again. The last time was a mess to say it lightly. I use autounmask to unmask it. I use this command: autounmask kde-base/kde-meta-4.5.1 I don't use the -n option but it doesn't seem to matter even if I do. I'm on portage-2.2_rc67 and autounmask-0.27 which is the only version I see in the tree. After I run autounmask and then do a emerge -uvDNa world, I get this: r...@smoker / # emerge -uvDNa world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy =kde-base/kdelibs-[-kdeprefix,-aqua]. (dependency required by kde-base/liboxygenstyle- [installed]) (dependency required by kde-base/kdebase-meta-4.5.1 [ebuild]) (dependency required by kde-base/kde-meta-4.5.1 [ebuild]) (dependency required by @world [argument]) r...@smoker / # If I add that kdelibs package to the unmask file, it just goes to the nest blocker and this continues until I get the idea something is not working right. So, is autounmask not working right? Am I not doing something right? Am I missing something? Oh, I don't currently have any overlays on here. I waited until it hit the tree and had a couple days to settle down. Thanks for any insight on this. Dale :-) :-)
[gentoo-user] To be sse3 or not to be sse3, that is the phenom!
Hi, short question: My PC runs a AMD Phenom II X6 1090T (E0 stepping, Black Edition). cat /proc/cpuinfo claims, that the processor does support sse, sse2 and sse4a (sse3 is missing). Wikipedia states for the same CPU that it would support sse3. What is correct? Best regards, mcc
Re: [gentoo-user] HAL permissions? (k3b sees no device at all)

HAD was running, butL: When hal-devices was executed as user no devices found (none! not single!) was reported, while executing the same command as root works fine. With strace I found that this was due to permissions problems dbus has. I fixed this by removing a section (found by diffing a configuration of and old but working version of dbus) from /etc/dbus-1/system.conf, without really knowing the impact. Now hal-devices also reports to a normal user. I added both system.conf files for your information to this email. org.system.conf is the file, which was originally installed and which does not work. system.conf is the hacked one, which work, but which may do other things (currently unkonw to me) things wrong. What is the correct way to fix permission problems (or access rights) in conjunction with dbus the correct way? Thank you for your help in advance! Best regards, mcc Hello, I had the same problem before migrating my kernel to use ATA instead of deprecated IDE support for disks and cd/dvd drives. After migration, everything is working just fine. -- Andrés Becerra Sandoval Hi, Thanks fpr your reply ! :) I am using a IDE to USB bridge which connect my (older) IDE-based burner to my USB port... Its seems, no ATA/IDE driver is involved ?! Best regards, mcc

So, is autounmask not working right? Am I not doing something right? Am I missing something? It's not kdelibs that's your problem, it is liboxygen style. portage wants to use version from svn and it's that that is pulling in kdelibs. Fix your unmask for liboxygenstyle, then see with -t why it wants the - version -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
